Yellow Star Stud will be holding a Christmas Party Sale on 21 December, including a half-brother to Putchini and the first juveniles by son of Galileo, The Assayer.
Summerhill have produced more winners this season (nine ahead of the second placed farm according to current nhra stats -3 December) than any other stud in the top 10 breeders log. There is a thought that you can predict what is to come in the future based on the past – if Summerhill’s ten year leading breeder accolades are anything to go by, their draft is to be respected.
The Var colt is out of Backworth-bred 8-time winner Raise The Bar, a daughter of exceptional broodmare sire Goldkeeper who flew the flag brightly for Backworth Stud in her heyday. Her first foal is already Bold Black Type, the Gimmethegreenlight filly Rose In Bloom winning the Irridescence Stakes and Stakes Placed. The colt sold for R850 000 to Mark Erasmus.
Brave Tin Soldier’s smart daughter and Gr1 winner Brave Mary, second in the Emperors Ready to Run Cup, is headed to quarantine at Kenilworth in advance of a long trip through Mauritius to France in late February. KZN-bred Anna Pavlova made the trip to France at the end of October for Team Valor.
The sale, conducted by Jan Naude and Caroline Simpson’s Livestock Auctions, achieved an aggregate of R4 145 000, with an average of R69 083 and a top price of R380 000 paid by Bobby Rajhuhanan for a beautiful Visionaire colt. – Turf Talk
Another impressive day for KZN-breds at Turffontein yesterday, as five of the 10 races carded went to horses born and raised in Kwa-Zulu Natal, including two for De Kock Crusade filly Onamission and Await The Dawn’s talented daughter, Tammany Hall.
